About Elliot’s Best – The Field Museum Edition
Produced in collaboration with Chicago’s Field Museum, Elliot’s Best offers the crème de la crème of Daniel Giraud Elliot’s work. Featuring images from his folios on birds of paradise, cats, and pheasants, this collection is uniquely produced from the original hand-colored lithographs in the collection of The Field Museum’s Mary W. Runnells Rare Book Room.
The prints are exact replicas and faithfully reproduce the incredible detail and color for which the original prints are famous. Each sheet is blind embossed with the official Field Museum stamp on the bottom left and the Oppenheimer Editions’ stamp on the bottom right. Every print is numbered and stamped on the back with the signature of the president of the Field Museum. This museum-authorized edition is limited to only 500 of each print.
About Oppenheimer Editions
Established in 1999, our publishing company Oppenheimer Editions was developed in order to produce modern facsimiles of historic works of art. Marrying cutting-edge digital printing technologies with canonical works of art, Oppenheimer Editions has partnered with prestigious museums to make their holdings accessible to the public as fine art prints. Works from the New-York Historical Society’s unrivaled collections of John James Audubon’s watercolors and the Hudson River School paintings are examples of art that otherwise would be unobtainable.
Among the institutional collections we have partnered with are the American Museum of Natural History, the Field Museum, and the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew. Our Oppenheimer Editions prints are not mere reproductions. Rather, they are limited-edition fine art prints made with the finest quality archival pigments on rag watercolor paper and executed to exacting standards.
